Improve backslash handling in :set option values. There is no special
handling for options supporting Windows path separators yet.
See :help option-backslash.
Remove the vimSetString syntax group. Option string values cannot be
specified with a quoted string, this is a command terminating tail
comment.

- Only match valid predefined and option variables.
- Match scope dictionaries.
- Highlight scope prefixed variables as a scope dictionary accessor. The
vimVarScope syntax group can be linked to vimVar to disable this.
- Include support for Neovim-only predefined and option variables.
Temporary collateral damage - scope dictionaries match instead of keys
in dictionary literals.

Problem:
`vim.lsp.buf.[implementation|definition|...]({ reuse_win = true })` does not
jump cursor to existing window if buffer is already open.
Steps to reproduce:
1. `nvim repro.lua`
2. Insert anything that lsp can read to open the library definition/implementation, e.g., `vim.keymap.set`
3. open `repro.lua` buffer and the library buffer side by side.
4. type `gd` over `set` to jump to the library definition.
The open buffer is scrolled to the target line, but cursor does not jump.
Solution:
Call nvim_set_current_win if necessary.
- Simplify usage:
- Instead of `nvim -l src/gen/gen_lsp.lua gen` now just
run `./src/gen/gen_lsp.lua`
- Removed `--methods` and `--capabilities` options.
- Improved rendering code in various areas.
This change modifies gen_lsp.lua so alias types are generated for
various types of lsp methods to distinguish between notifications
and requests:
- vim.lsp.protocol.Method.ServerToClient.Request
- vim.lsp.protocol.Method.ServerToClient.Notification
- vim.lsp.protocol.Method.ClientToServer.Request
- vim.lsp.protocol.Method.ClientToServer.Notification
These types are then used instead of `string` where appropriate.
Wrap the setting of basic whitespace formatting options in a conditional
block, following the de facto standard.
Setting 'et', 'sts' and 'sw' can be disabled by setting
"gleam_recommended_style" to false.

Problem:
When a command is not found or not executable, the error message gives
no indication about what command was actually tried.
Solution:
Always append the command name to the error message.

fix#33445
Problem: During insert-mode completion, the most relevant match is often
the one closest to the cursor—frequently just above the current line.
However, both `<C-N>` and `<C-P>` tend to rank candidates from the
current buffer that appear above the cursor near the bottom of the
completion menu, rather than near the top. This ordering can feel
unintuitive, especially when `noselect` is active, as it doesn't
prioritize the most contextually relevant suggestions.
Solution: This change introduces a new sub-option value "nearest" for the
'completeopt' setting. When enabled, matches from the current buffer
are prioritized based on their proximity to the cursor position,
improving the relevance of suggestions during completion
(Girish Palya).
Key Details:
- Option: "nearest" added to 'completeopt'
- Applies to: Matches from the current buffer only
- Effect: Sorts completion candidates by their distance from the cursor
- Interaction with other options:
- Has no effect if the `fuzzy` option is also present
This feature is helpful especially when working within large buffers where
multiple similar matches may exist at different locations.
You can test this feature with auto-completion using the snippet below. Try it
in a large file like `vim/src/insexpand.c`, where you'll encounter many
potential matches. You'll notice that the popup menu now typically surfaces the
most relevant matches—those closest to the cursor—at the top. Sorting by
spatial proximity (i.e., contextual relevance) often produces more useful
matches than sorting purely by lexical distance ("fuzzy").
Another way to sort matches is by recency, using an LRU (Least Recently Used)
cache—essentially ranking candidates based on how recently they were used.
However, this is often overkill in practice, as spatial proximity (as provided
by the "nearest" option) is usually sufficient to surface the most relevant
matches.
```vim
set cot=menuone,popup,noselect,nearest inf
def SkipTextChangedIEvent(): string
# Suppress next event caused by <c-e> (or <c-n> when no matches found)
set eventignore+=TextChangedI
timer_start(1, (_) => {
set eventignore-=TextChangedI
})
return ''
enddef
autocmd TextChangedI * InsComplete()
def InsComplete()
if getcharstr(1) == '' && getline('.')->strpart(0, col('.') - 1) =~ '\k$'
SkipTextChangedIEvent()
feedkeys("\<c-n>", "n")
endif
enddef
inoremap <silent> <c-e> <c-r>=<SID>SkipTextChangedIEvent()<cr><c-e>
inoremap <silent><expr> <tab> pumvisible() ? "\<c-n>" : "\<tab>"
inoremap <silent><expr> <s-tab> pumvisible() ? "\<c-p>" : "\<s-tab>"
```

Problem: When piping raw manpage content into `:Man!`, buf name is
set to 'man://.. ref', but the check only matches the prefix.
Allows duplicate buffers to be created, triggering E95.
Solution: Match full buf name instead of only 'man://' prefix.
If the buffer already exists, generate a unique name with
'man://' .. 'ref' .. '?new=' format.
Refs: #30132
Problem: Some parts of the tutor are outdated.
- For example, pressing `<Tab>` after typing `:e` does not complete the
command `:edit`, but shows a completion menu with the first entry being
`:earlier`.

Problem: filetype: mbsyncrc files are not recognized
Solution: detect isyncrc and "*.mbsyncrc" files as mbsync filetype,
include filetype and syntax plugin (Pierrick Guillaume)
mbsync is a command line application which synchronizes mailboxes;
currently Maildir and IMAP4 mailboxes are supported.
New messages, message deletions and flag changes can be propagated both ways;
the operation set can be selected in a fine-grained manner.

Problem:
treesitter injected language ranges sometimes cross over the capture
boundaries when `@combined`.
Solution:

languagetree.lua, and only apply highlights within those regions in
highlighter.lua.

This has been bothering me quite for some time and I never knew why it
happened. Just today it occurred to me this might have been because of
the last-position-jump.
So I figured, let's fix it for everybody, not just me.

Problem:
executability check using `uv.fs_access`
doesn't work currently and can't work on windows
Solution:
only check for executable with `vim.fn.executable`
Problem:
`vim.version.range('>=0.10'):has('0.12.0-dev')` returns false, which is
wrong per semver.
Solution:
`vim.VersionRange:has()` shouldn't have special handling for prereleases
(Why would we need it when `__eq`, `__lt`, `__le` already handle
prereleases?).
Closes#33316
Problem: No type information for `vim.uv`.
Solution: Vendor https://github.com/LuaCATS/luv (which is what
luals bundles). This will allow other tooling to work out-of-the-box and
make these files available to users and plugins without the need for
`lazydev.nvim` etc.
Problem: tests: no test for matchparen plugin with WinScrolled event
Solution: add missing test

Problem:
- Help tags provide a good way to navigate the Vim documentation, but
many help documents don't use them effectively. I think one of the
reasons is that help writers have to look up help tags manually with
`:help` command, which is not very convenient.
- 'iskeyword' is only set for help buffers opened by `:help` command.
That means if I'm editing a help file, I cannot jump to tag in same
file using `Ctrl-]` unless I manually set it, which is annoying.
Solution:
- Add omni completion for Vim help tags.
- Set 'iskeyword' for `ft-help`
